First Sighting of Rhino Calf

This is Mother Naishuro, and her new calf. We still don't know if it's a boy or a girl.

The calf is about two and a half months old and this is the first time I've seen it with the Mother. The Mother is very calm and stayed out in the open for the whole day, moving only for about a kilometre.

Great news! Great the rhinos find the area good for breeding.

Would love to know too how many resident rhinos you have.
